Door County Board raises tax levy, drops tax rate in 2027 budget

The Door County Board unanimously passed the county's proposed 2027 budget with no changes to its final draft or comments from the public during its Nov. 10 meeting. As a result, the tax levy will rise a little but the tax rate will drop by a notable figure, both for a fifth straight year. What that means to your property tax bill from the county (not including the tax rate for your city, village, town or school district) depends on the property's assessed value and how much it changed, if at all, in the past year. The county plans to spend about $152.8 million in 2027, about a 20% increase from the $127.3 million in expenditures in the 2026 budget. Almost all of that increase is found in capital improvement projects, where the budget is rising from $22.9 million to $48 million. Of the $152.8 million in expenditures, $33.29 million will come from the tax levy (the amount generated by the county property tax), the maximum allowed by state-set limits and 1.16% more than the $32.9 million levy in 2026. However, the tax rate for 2027 will drop by 6.98%, from $2.21 to $2.06 per $1,000 of assessed equalized property
